Hi,
I am developing proces on windows server 2012 R2. No orechestrator, just localy. After couple of hours of testing which went correctly a started to recieve message :“A foreground process is already running. Only one foreground process cen be run at a time.” and I am not able to run anything anymore - not even testing message box.
Is there a way to solve that? At the moment I am stuck.
Thank you
Roman

Welcome back to our Uipath community.

Yes we can run one Foreground process at a time along with that we can run multiple Background processes at a time. I.e. process which doesn’t interact with User Interface.

To create Background processes use Background process template and then try it.

@lakshman Can I do more than one foreground activity using HDR?

@rajamari.rajendran

You mean using High Density Robots ?

If yes then you can run.

@lakshman Yes. Thanks for your response. Can we use HDR for the unattended bot?

@rajamari.rajendran

Yes. Any type of Robot (Attended, Unattended or NonProduction) can be configured in a High-Density environment.

for the job failure “A foreground process is already running. Only one foreground process can run at a time”
I installed Uipath with platform installer exe file, in Service Mode. that solved the issue.

Is there a way to stop the current foreground process. I’m also getting the message System.InvalidOperationException. I’m not quite sure what this means. I am quite new to UiPath so as much information as possible would be very helpful. Thank you!
